Chapter 374 - Preparations
In the Admes workshop, the noise of the forges has not stopped making noise for four days.
Poor Admes was only able to stay awake thanks to the use of a special coffee made by Taneri and blessed by Naturae.
But even with the Admes coffee, he felt quite tired, but nevertheless, seeing the G.o.ddesses working for days without rest made him feel extremely happy because the Selene flying boat could be completed in time.
When h.e.l.lena put the last plate on the s.h.i.+p and Amanda soldered it, Admes was able to finish the job.
The G.o.ddesses were tired enough left Admes's workshop to go to the quartz palace to get some sleep since when they wake up, h.e.l.lena and s.h.i.+ni will go on a trip to Europe.
While they go to rest, Taneri and Arisai were working at full speed, gathering as much food as possible to maintain an expedition of more than a million people for 2 months.
This would be impossible if you were in Europe because purchases would have to be made, and the preparation of resources would take years like when Flavius left the continent.
But in America, the situation is different when having deep-sea fis.h.i.+ng boats, and being a continent with a small number of humans, Fish banks allow to obtain tons of fresh fish.
In general, Taneri would not allow fis.h.i.+ng in large quant.i.ties since the demand is low, and the surplus can rot, which would make senseless fis.h.i.+ng.
However, now it is different because all the fish will be dried and prepared for the expedition, she does not know how h.e.l.lena and s.h.i.+ni are going to organize the distribution, but she only wants to have everything ready.
In some cabins, women and children were working for a few hours while earning some money.
The work was not compulsory, but the Roman citizens could never use a little extra money with which they could buy some extra things.
In order to make the fish dry, they first opened the fish and removed the entrails, the entrails were placed in some barrels which were taken to the fertilizer plants.
After removing the entrails, they cleaned the fish with plenty of water to prevent them from having blood, once they were cleaned they bathed the fish in salt and placed them on hooks where they would be dried in cabins.
Because the drying time with the sun was too long, Taneri resorted to drying in hermetically sealed cabins, once the fish entered the cabin, fireplaces were lit outside.
The process caused the humidity to be completely eliminated from the hut, and with it, the fish began to eliminate the water inside them, causing them to dry out.
This process took 3 hours, but 3 tons of fish were dried; once the fish was dried, it was placed in sacks that were taken to the imperial mausoleum where they were left in a central warehouse, which was emptied every 6 hours by Thor.
Whoever kept the sacks using his divine energy kept a record of the exact amounts, which were a record of everything Thor kept.
For Thor, being able to see the large amount of food produced by the Roman Empire was surprising since most of its people can only fish small amounts of fish.
This is because there is not enough salt to be able to keep the fish so that only the coast or areas with rivers can have fish, most of its people can only live on some crops or hunting animals.
Loki, for his part, a.n.a.lyzed the entire process that citizens did from fis.h.i.+ng with strange boats that allowed them to use a network in the Interior of the sea that obtained a large amount of fis.h.i.+ng.
Perhaps what surprised him most was seeing thousands of kilograms of salt, which was used without care to dry the fish. When he asked about the process of obtaining salt, the soldiers explained that there were salt flats along the coast.
This surprised Loki quite a bit because the salt production process was so advanced that when he asked the cost, the guard only smiled and mentioned that salt is a good of the citizens, so its cost is only symbolic.
While they spoke, Flavio and the Architect faced a duel of intelligence and strategy while playing chess.
Flavio moved his p.a.w.n, and the Architect smiled, "You are amazing Flavio of all the movements you chose the least suitable, you want to tell me the reason."
The Architect could see Flavio scratching his head "I only moved the piece because I felt I had to move it, in chess, I like to follow my instincts.
I don't always win, but when I do, I can even surprise my opponent, many times as a child, I could give my grandfather some surprises. "
With a laugh, the Architect moved her room to allow Flavio to make his move "I think that att.i.tude is very interesting, Flavio, the G.o.ds mostly behave mechanically or let their emotions speak for them.
As an architect, I don't have that spark that you have, I only a.n.a.lyze the information and look for an action plan, in fights I can be a little freer but nothing like you. "
Flavio moved his horse so that he could target the Queen of the Architect "You should reincarnate as a human and live a normal life when the danger of limbo is over.
When you know the bottom of the gla.s.s, you learn to appreciate things when you are higher, I like power, but for me, the most important thing is my family.
To be able to see my children run from one side to another, to be able to dawn with the hug of my wives or with the face of my children is a feeling that I do not intend to change for the world.
I don't think it's a way of life that many like, but it's what emotionally fills me, I guess I'm a bit of an architect, but tell me what you want. "
The Architect looked at Flavio for a moment before realizing that he was right, since his origin, he has never wanted anything because she can do everything.
Thanks to this question that I couldn't stop thinking Flavio ended up winning the chess game without much difficulty.
